- <p> Mica Paris' name isn't pronounced the way it's spelled.
- It's Mee-shah, as in Michelle Antoinette. And though she was
- born in Britain, Mica sounds as if she grew up in Motown. "I
- listened to Marvin Gaye and the Isley Brothers while growing
- up," says Paris. "My music is not outright pop, and my vocals
- are gospel. A lot of people in America don't know that there's
- soul in England too." Last week So Good, her debut album, which
- is doing big business in Britain, was released in the States.
- Will the U.S. love Paris as much as the U.K. does? She aims to
- find out. The singer, 19, plans an American tour in the summer
- -- when Paris, as the song goes, sizzles.
